What is it?
A dating and early wellbeing scan is a safe ultrasound examination performed in early pregnancy to accurately confirm gestational age and assess early fetal development. The scan uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed, real-time images.
This examination is typically performed between 12 and 16 weeks of pregnancy, when pregnancy dating can be assessed most accurately.
Additional Information
